Chapter 250 Starting Ceremony

Weibo and LV know how to promote.

As soon as the Oscar news was announced, Weibo immediately pinned it to the top of its homepage.

LV also urgently announced that it would customize an exclusive Oscar red carpet dress and accessories for Liu Yifei, and also updated its promotional posters worldwide.

"Xixi, take a look at Weibo, you are tagged in all the posts."

After Su Chang finished filming "Love Is Not Blind", he came to Liu Yifei, and the two began to be affectionate again.

Hearing this, Liu Yifei, who was lying on the sofa reading a script, quickly stood up, picked up the mobile phone next to her and started reading.

Weibo was very lively at this time, with a large number of artists sending out congratulatory messages.

Many fans also sent their blessings below.

From Hong Kong Island, led by Cheng Long, Andy Lau, Leonard Leung, Chow Yun-fat and others also sent their congratulations.

At the same time, there are four Dans and two Bings. No matter what they think in their hearts, at least they do well on the surface.

Even Zhang Ziyi, who was involved in various scandals, made a rare statement of congratulations.

"Come on Yifei, win the Oscar for Best Actress."

"Being nominated is a victory. If it doesn't work this time, try again next time. Tag Director Gu."

...

China Film Group.

Han Sanping attached great importance to "2012" and, after discussing with Gu Wei, planned to hold an opening ceremony.

Cheng Long also called and said he would be there, as his schedule was completely free.

At the end of the month, the opening ceremony was held at the China Film Studio shooting base.

Cheng Long, Liu Yifei, Huang Xiaoming, Chen Daoming, Qin Hao, Chen Minghao, Wu Jing and others were all present.

Even Li Binbin, who made a guest appearance, came.

Several Hollywood protagonists didn’t come, and Gu Wei didn’t want to go back and forth.

Han Sanping from China Film Group, Light Media, Wanda, and Emperor Entertainment Group all came. Jiang Wen put down the editing work he was doing and came to join in the fun.

The TV series "The Myth" produced by Emperor Entertainment Group has been broadcast on CCTV-8 for more than a week.

It has high ratings and good reputation, and is a very popular TV series.

Emperor Entertainment Group will hold a celebration banquet in the capital.

On the day of the celebration banquet, Han Sanping, Jiang Wen and Gu Wei all attended.

At the opening ceremony, as Gu Wei unveiled the cover on the camera, "2012" officially started filming.

On the start day, the crew symbolically shot a group of shots and then held a dinner.

In the hall, there were several film and television company bosses, as well as the main creative staff and crew members of the crew. There were more than a dozen tables in the hall. Everyone was eating and chatting, and the scene was very lively.

From time to time, hotel staff came to sign autographs and take photos.

"Director, let me toast to you."

At the dinner table, Cheng Long came to Gu Wei and said while holding up his glass.

After drinking, the two started chatting, and Liu Yifei was pulled by Li Binbin and was talking about something.

After chatting for a while, Jiang Wen came over.

"When is your company's "Painted Skin 2" going to be released?"

"It hasn't been decided yet, what's wrong?"

Gu Wei was a little confused.

"What else can I do? Just avoid them. Both movies have big investments, so it's better to stagger their release dates."

Jiang Wen was somewhat helpless. This movie had such a huge investment and he attached great importance to the box office. If it lost money again, not to mention the loss of investment, it would probably take several more years.

“The time has not been decided yet, the earliest will be the second half of the year.

The post-production of Let the Bullets Fly has just begun, and you are a little anxious. "

"Well, I just want to say that I plan to find a good time slot this time. Whether I live or die depends on this time."

Jiang Wen's words sounded like a fight to the death.

"Don't worry, we will notify you in advance before the release date is set."

"Uh-huh."

After chatting for a while, other people came over to say hello.

...

After the opening ceremony, Gu Wei was busy filming on the set, with scenes in the capital, Shanghai, and Hong Kong Island all being shot on the set.

Hu Ge and Emperor Entertainment Group's artist Bai Bing became famous thanks to "The Myth".

Many fans and audiences online prefer these two people, and quite a few neutral audiences are optimistic about the role of Zhao Gao in the script.

“This character was brought to life.”

"Step by step, toward the highest."

It has to be said that Zhang Shi has gradually become known to the audience thanks to this role.

Compared with "The Myth", another TV series produced by Starlight, "The Biography of Sun Tzu", was not so lucky.

According to media reports, the show was taken off the air just a few days after it was aired.

I heard that someone reported the adaptation, saying it was inconsistent with history and disrespectful to historical figures.

“Sometimes you don’t know what’s going on in the minds of the people doing the review.”

After seeing the report, Gu Wei said.

Nowadays, there is really no fixed standard for the censorship of movies or TV series. For example, the TV series "The Great Qin Empire" took three years to pass.

But some people make horror movies and adapt historical dramas, and they are still able to be released and broadcast as scheduled.

Not to mention the distant past, just take the two "Red Cliff" movies as an example. The scripts were seriously inconsistent with history, but they were still regarded as blockbusters.

No wonder those directors in the industry have been clamoring for the film rating system. Sometimes those people in the General Administration are really disgusting.

It's really tragic that Jing Tian's first TV series as the leading actress was inexplicably taken off the shelves.

After entering the crew, Liu Yifei seemed like a different person, probably because Liu Xiaoli was watching over her. She got up on time every day, washed, put on makeup, and then memorized the script and filmed.

Cheng Long has been making movies for most of his life, so he has no problem with his roles.

This time he plays a scientist and there are not too many fighting scenes.

“This is the easiest movie I’ve ever made.”

During a break in the filming, the other party said cheerfully.

"Pay attention to the camera later. Set the lighting well. Don't make it too bright."

"Where is the prop team? What are you doing? Go and recover."

...

At the shooting site, the logistics staff kept busy amid Gu Wei's roar.

"Director Gu is always so strict during filming."

Cheng Long next to him was working with Gu Wei for the first time. He looked at Liu Yifei and asked in a low voice.

"Almost. When we were filming Interstellar, Leonardo and the others didn't curse."

"this…"

For a moment, Cheng Long was shocked.

"Actors, get ready in five minutes. Next shot will begin immediately."

"Here I come, Director."

Hearing this, Cheng Long said hurriedly.

...

"Avatar", which was released for a month, was officially withdrawn from theaters in early February.

Only 13.78 billion box office revenue was left.

The domestic film market saw the birth of its first billion-dollar box office movie.

It also marks that the mainland film market has officially entered the era of billion-dollar box office for a single movie.

Online, media reporters are reporting on this matter.

Currently on the domestic box office list, the film following "Avatar" is "Founding of a Republic".

Simply calculating from the box office, the three "Founding of a Republic" films combined are still more than 100 million short of "Avatar".

It's really heartbreaking to see netizens posting non-stop and making comparisons.

“When will domestic films exceed 1 billion box office?”

"'Looking Forward to 2012' was released, breaking the box office record of 'Avatar'."

The success of "Avatar" also stimulated the domestic film market, allowing everyone to understand the gap and see the potential of the mainland film market.

As long as the box office of this movie is not surpassed, it will always inspire major film companies in the industry.

It will make them increase their investment, upgrade existing equipment, and shoot movies that can generate high box office returns.

"This is a good thing. In the next few years, domestic films will enter a period of box office explosion."

What celebrities and artists sell is their persona. Their private lives are often very different from what they show on the screen. Once some things are revealed, they become shocking news.

Audiences love to hear this kind of news, and paparazzi are also keen on taking secret photos to get explosive news.

Following Zhang Ziyi’s “various scandals”, the actress who was once well-known to the audience for her role as “Peacock Princess” was exposed in the “text message scandal”.

This was once a popular actress known to everyone, and her popularity was no less than that of other actresses. However, once the incident happened, her personal image was greatly affected, and her so-called jade-like image collapsed in an instant.

The content of the text messages mainly involved an intermediary hinting that a boss who was "not short of money" liked Peacock Princess very much and hoped that Peacock Princess could have dinner with his boss.

The agent then sent a text message hinting that his boss behind the scenes was interested in paying Peacock Princess to "sleep with him". The agent replied very sincerely: "Go and come back on the same day, 100% confidential."

Now, the circle suddenly became lively again, and everyone discovered that the so-called celebrity artists also have clearly marked prices.

"Damn, I envy the boss of the movie company."

"Just get used to it, that's how the entertainment industry is."

...

"Brother Long, is everything that's been circulating online true?"

In the crew, Liu Yifei looked at Gu Wei who was busy and asked Cheng Long next to him.

"Well, maybe."

Cheng Long was speechless at this moment. During these days on the crew, he also noticed that Liu Yifei and Gu Wei had an unusual relationship.

If it were someone else, Cheng Long would really want to have a good chat with him, but he was too embarrassed to say that to this person.

The main thing is that I don’t know how to put it, whether to say that all men are like this, or that these are the “unspoken rules” in the circle.

Helpless, she could only answer vaguely. Seeing Cheng Long's expression, Liu Yifei also understood. She just looked at Gu Wei's back thoughtfully.

Gu Wei, who was busy shooting the next scene, suddenly felt a little cold. He turned around and saw Liu Yifei looking at him with a smile.

Just one week after the launch of "2012", someone in the crew asked for leave.

This year's Berlin Film Festival is about to begin, and Chen Minghao will go there with the crew of "No Man's Land".

"Director, I'm so sorry."

"Haha, it's okay, this is a good thing. Follow Director Ning and try to win an award. Then I'll come back to celebrate with you."

Looking at Chen Minghao who came to ask for leave, Gu Wei smiled and said.

"Old Chen, stop dithering."

Qin Hao on the side also said.

"Come on, looking forward to good news."

Liu Yifei also came over and offered her blessings.

"Thank you all for waiting for my triumphant return."

On weekdays in the crew, Chen Minghao gets along very well with everyone, mainly because he is humorous and often makes everyone laugh.
